Good Enough Hormonal Acne Tea

Spearmint tea may help improve acne by reducing androgen levels, hormones that contribute to excess oil production and breakouts. Research indicates that spearmint has anti-androgenic properties, which can be beneficial for individuals with hormonal imbalances such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) or hirsutism. Clinical trials have demonstrated that consuming spearmint tea lowers free testosterone levels, potentially regulating sebum production and reducing acne severity (Grant, 2010, Akdogan et al., 2007). Additionally, plant-derived anti-androgens, including spearmint, have shown promising effects in improving endocrine balance and ovarian health (Samaras et al., 2018). Incorporating spearmint tea into a skincare routine could be a natural way to support clearer skin by targeting hormonal acne at its source.
